Nina West

About

Andrew Levitt, better known by her stage name Nina West, is an American drag queen and singer from Greentown, OH. A graduate of Denison University, Granville, OH, she first dipped her toes in drag in 2001. For almost two decades she worked on creating a space for herself in the industry and found a mentor in fellow drag queen Virginia West. Her big moment came when she finally bagged a spot on the cast of the eleventh season of RuPaul's Drag Race in 2019, after nine failed attempts. With her star on the rise, she found several opportunities knocking at her door and that same year, she became the first person to walk in full drag on the purple carpet of the Primetime Emmy Awards. Additionally, she has dabbled in music, film and television.
